Be real. The problem is not that Wilsons wife exists or has a name, but that someone gave out info about what her job is with the CIA.
Novak denies anyone identified the wife to him
Untrue. Novak admitted in his statement this week that 2 administration officials gave him the info during the process of an interview he was conducting. He only refuted the idea that administration officials "called" him to supply him with the info.
More horses--- for the dem spin machine.
I admit there is spinning going on here and Rush Limbaugh is doing a lot of it by trying to change the meaning of Novaks own words this week.
The problem is also Wilson's credibility - See this thread, in which a Seattle Post-Intelligencer editorial from August 10, 2003 notes, "In carefully discussing what he called the hypothetical possibility his wife is a CIA employee, Wilson noted that the use of her maiden name would compromise work done before their marriage five years ago."
